Jack Benny was an American treasure, a truly funny and wonderful man, a role model for patriarchal culture.

But even Jack was not fully aware that we cannot give any weapon, no matter how small to the leftist culture killers, they will use it.

Jack portrayed himself as being a tightwad and less than proficient with the violin, both highly inaccurate.

The lefties used this type of stereotype to character assassinate males subsequently in the likes of "All in the Family", "Married with Children", and "The Simpsons" reaching a zenith in "American Dad" and "The Family Guy" (not), proving that excrement can be transmitted on the public airwaves.

True, he was so ‘bad’ because he was really good - vilon player that is to say.

The victim in any of JB jokes was Jack himself. One of my favorites was the bit on the patatoe ‘soap’.

Jack was generous and just as funny in real life. ANy of the few nterviews left floating around are worth the time to download and watch/listen to.

What can I say, I am an old time radio fan.....

Granted married with children has its fill of raunch humour, but I seem to remember that in that show the audience could at least identify with “Al” as an old-school shavinist All American Male!

It’s the way I took it, he may have done “dumb” things, but his philosophy was at least party correct (and more importantly Anti-Feminist/PC Culture..).

The Family Guy

While certainly not for children, "The Family Guy" has a few funny moments. However, the ongoing story line of an infant repeatedly seeking to kill his mother is the most spectacularly unfunny thing unimaginable.
